Part 1:We talk with Anders Croy, Communications Director for Florida Watch.We discuss the recent elections in Florida to replace two members of Congress. The Democratic candidates dis NOT win, but the votes were much lower for the Republican candidates than anticipated. There is a feud between the governor and the legislature in Florida. Property taxes is a point of contention, as are sales taxes. Property insurance rates continue to rise, and some insurance companies have abandoned Florida markets. For residents, property insurance rates are a very important consideration.Part 2:We talk with Elizabeth Minnich, earned her M.A. and Ph.D. in Philosophy from The Graduate Faculty for Political and Social Science of The New School University in New York, who was a Teaching Assistant for Hannah Arendt. She wrote her dissertation on John Dewey, and has continued to work on political and moral implications, roles, responsibilities of education in and for democracy.We discuss evil, particularly how it permeates society, and how politicians and others use it for their goals. Increasingly, we note that evil is normalized, and the process by which it happens. We talk about 'intensive evil' and 'extensive evil', and how it can be counteracted with 'intensive good', which requires that a large number of people participate in this practice. Music: From David Rovics, “The Richest Man in the World Says So”, 2025

This episode features Dr. Cara Furman, Associate Professor of Literacy at the University of Maine at Farmington and member of the Graduate Faculty at University of Maine. Dr. Furman's scholarship focuses on integrating qualitative data and philosophy at the intersection of teacher development, descriptive inquiry, asset-based inclusive teaching, and progressive literacy practices. At the heart of her work is a form of in-depth, descriptive writing that fosters philosophically-informed teacher inquiry. Such descriptive inquiry allows teachers and educational leaders to care for their ethical selves and to develop practical wisdom.   In the book, Descriptive Inquiry in Teacher Practice: Cultivating Practical Wisdom to Create Democratic Schools, Dr. Furman and her co-author Cecelia Traugh offer an in-depth portrait of Descriptive Inquiry as it was integrated into four urban, public schools.  Readers gain insight into the power of this process to foster a more collaborative school culture, address the needs of students more substantively, and engage teachers in practice-embedded learning. Particularly noteworthy is the confidence with which teachers and school leaders were able to resist mandates that would be detrimental to students and to work with outside agencies to adapt mandates to the schools' mission.   In addition to publishing in an impressive range of journals, Dr. Furman co-hosts Thinking in the Midst, a podcast that brings philosophical thinking to bear on contemporary issues. She is currently working with Tomas Rocha, on her second book, Teachers and Philosophy: Essays From a Contact Zone. This edited collection will explore what it means to think and write from the contact zone that is philosophy and practice.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with three college professors — Professor Joe Conto, Professor Eric Holmlund, and Associate Professor Kelly Cerialo. This week's discussion focuses on sustainable tourism and how it links into the new Master's program that Paul Smith's College offers. My guests share the inspiration behind launching the new program and their vision for how it will support the long-term professional education of those in the travel and tourism space. What You Will Learn in this Episode: Why everyone is so excited about the new Master's program in Sustainable Tourism Management Why sustainability is a thread that's woven through many of the courses at Paul Smith's College Who the program is for, including mid-career professionals and people newly out of their undergraduate education who want to gain an environmental credential When you can apply to the new Master's program The importance of balancing out the social, economic, and environmental impacts of tourism How the current Paul Smith's College students are receiving the idea of this new program What sparked the idea and gave the team their inspiration for the new program Studying Sustainable Tourism Management What's unique about the model that Paul Smith's College has built for their brand new Sustainable Tourism Management Master's is that it is a low residency model which enables people from various backgrounds and industries to join. Professor Kelly describes the types of students that they are expecting to enroll in the new degree, from mid-career professionals interested in learning more about sustainability who may or may not currently work in the tourism sector, to entrepreneurs working in a tourist destination who are interested to learn more about sustainability, to recent graduates in the travel and tourism sector. Sustainability is a Headline Theme Sustainability is something that the current students at Paul Smith's College have in mind all the time. Professor Kelly shares more about why the upcoming generation of travel and tourism professionals is drawn to sustainability as a headline theme. Professor Paul shares his discussions with former students who are out in the workforce about their interest in returning to further study, focusing on sustainability because it is an area they see as the future but also personally important to them. One of the most significant shifts he has seen over the last 10-12 years is the genuine belief that sustainability is a necessity in every industry. Inspiration for the New Program Professor Eric discusses why Paul Smith College is launching the Sustainable Tourism Management Master's and why they feel that now is the right moment to include the new program in the offering. All three guests share their pleasure that sustainability really is a leading issue in the consciousness, psyche, and future strategy of students graduating in the last ten years. They highlight that sustainability is more than a buzzword; it's a strategy for both surviving and flourishing into the future.

Quotas for women in government have swept the globe.

Brulé uses cutting-edge research design and extensive field research to make connections among political representation, backlash, and economic empowerment. Her findings show that women in government catalyze access to fundamental economic rights: property rights. Women in politics also have the power to support constituent rights at critical junctures, such as marriage negotiations, sparking integrative solutions to intra-household bargaining.

Episode 38 - Sewage Sludge, The Environmental Disaster You Don't Know About with Dr. David LewisDavid L. Lewis, Ph.D., retired from the U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development in 2003 as a senior-level (GS-15) Research Microbiologist with 32 years of service. He also served on the Graduate Faculty of the University of Georgia, and currently serves on the Science Advisory Board of the Focus for Health Foundation in Warren, NJ (www.focusforhealth.org/davidlewis). His investigations into public health and environmental problems has been published in Nature, Lancet and other leading scientific journals. This research has prompted the EPA, CDC, FDA and other public health organizations worldwide to upgrade infection-control guidelines and certain environmental policies. His research on adverse health effects associated with land application of treated sewage sludges prompted two hearings by the full Science Committee in the U.S. House of Representative, the passage of the No Fear Act by Congress, and a review of EPA sewage sludge (a.k.a. biosolids) policies by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and new CDC guidelines to protect workers handling biosolids. He was awarded the Science Achievement Award for 2000 by EPA Administrator Carol Browner, and the 2018 Distinguished Service Award by the Sierra Club. His book, Science for Sale: How the U.S. Government Uses Powerful Corporations and Leading Universities to Support Government Policies, Silence Top Scientists, Jeopardize Our Health, and Protect Corporate Profits is largely devoted to efforts within government and academia to downplay adverse health effects caused by land application of sewage sludges and improperly designed dental and medical devices. His primary topic is Institutional Scientific Misconduct, a term he coined for panel discussions at Harvard University's JFK School of Government, and the Royal Society of London. It refers to research misconduct sanctioned by government, industry and academic institutions, usually to create a body of bogus scientific literature to protect certain politically and economically favorable government policies and industry practices.If you've been affected by mold and want to contribute to our efforts, visit our Patreon or GoFundMe page to donate today.Patreon - patreon.com/exposingmoldGoFundMe - gofund.me/daf1233eTranscript: https://bit.ly/3mJ2nYf Click here to obtain this show's resources page: https://bit.ly/3Aozi9uFind us on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YoutubeSponsors: Michael Rubino, The Mold Medic and  All American Restoration,  the first and only mold remediation company in the country specializing in remediating mold for people with underlying health conditions or mold sensitivities.

Welcome back, everyone! I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend and got a chance to soak up some sun, get some vitamin D, see friends and family, and eat some glorious meats. I know I did.  If you're new to this podcast, I’m Brian Sanders and I'm making a film called Food Lies that goes to the beginning of human history to find out what we should be eating. We go through all the bad science that has led us astray, the new science that vindicates ancestral eating, and we even get into how we can eat meat in a not only sustainable way, but one that it is regenerative to the environment. All of these topics have been covered in the now 84 episodes of this podcast, so please start back at episode 1. Today I’m talking to Professor Stu Phillips who is one of the world’s leading authorities on protein and muscle science. He shares vital information in this interview on long term health, short term health such as fat loss and muscle gain, as well as combating the multitude of protein myths out there. Professor Phillips is the director of the Physical Activity Centre of Excellence (PACE), director of the  McMaster Centre for Nutrition, Exercise, and Health Research, and a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health in Aging. In addition to being a full Professor in Kinesiology, also Graduate Faculty in the School of Medicine at McMaster University. He is a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences (FCAHS), American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) and the American College of Nutrition (ACN). His research is focused on the impact of nutrition and exercise on the mechanisms of human skeletal muscle protein turnover. He is also keenly interested in diet- and exercise-induced changes in body composition particularly in older persons. While we’re on the topic of protein we all know the best sources are from grass finished, well-raised animals. Luckily that’s what we specialize in at http://NoseToTail.org that’s a little typographical humor for you there. You can get our extra-nutritious meat from our family farm in Texas delivered to your door as long as you're in the 48 contiguous United States. Our signature product is the Primal ground beef which includes liver, heart, kidney, and spleen, all without the hassle of incorporating them yourself. It also tastes great. I like to add a little seasoning to mine, but even if you don’t, it just tastes like a richer beef flavor. We have boxes that include a variety of cuts including the primal beef, sausage, beef bacon, and our premium boxes include bone meal for calcium (which you can add into the ground beef or use in bone broth), sardines (for more calcium and magnesium, among other things), and whole cod liver pieces in cod liver oil for vitamin A, D, and others. This is the full nutrient spectrum here! You even get marrow bones. Check out our great meats that are also great for the land at http://NoseToTail.org while supplies last. We’re still selling out each week so check in often! And now please get your steak ready for this protein info extravaganza with Professor Stuart Philips.   BUY THE MEAT! http://NosetoTail.org Support me on Patreon: http://patreon.com/peakhuman  Food Lies film: http://FoodLies.org   SHOW NOTES [6:50] Why protein is important for fat loss.  [8:00] How protein makes you feel full.  [12:20] Thermic effect of protein.

How do you know if you're eating enough protein? What if you're over 60? Why does protein intake even matter?? In today's episode we talk to Dr. Stuart Phillips, one of world's leading researchers on protein and aging. Dr. Stuart Phillips has over 32,000 career citations and 250 research and review papers with a focus on protein intake, exercise and aging. If health and longevity are of interest to you, pay close attention to what this man has to say!   Key topics: 0:00 – Who is Dr. Stuart Phillips? 2:45 – A primer on protein, why it’s important in the body, and the latest research 5:55 – We dive into aging, muscle loss, and the increased importance of dietary protein 8:15 – How much daily protein do you need to prevent age-related muscle loss? - One-third to one-half of your dinner plate!!! 10:40 – The differences between animal-based and plant-based protein sources 13:45 – We discuss social media, influencers, and the challenges of communicating GOOD science - The unfortunate Law of Phillips: “The power of an anecdote is directly proportional to either the income- or in the case of athletics, the athletic success- of the individual giving it. - #GOSCIENCE 20:35 – More about protein requirements: - Daily: 1g of protein per 1lb of lean body mass is the best general target - Active teens can eat anything and thrive; hormones ensure this - Elderly: You have to exercise and build muscle before old age to ensure quality of life 24:15 – How Stu’s exercise and diet have changed over the years - The value of morning workouts - Eating less junk food as activity level and metabolism decrease 28:25 – We discuss the merits of HIIT cardiovascular training - Martin Gibala, The One Minute Workout 29:30 – The number one piece of advice for beating chronic disease: Do something active.

Robotic surgery is a loaded term. Just reading the words can bring Hollywood-inspired images of fully autonomous robot doctors to mind. But that's not what's happening in the industry today. The "robots" are merely tools used by doctors, just like a stethoscope or a scalpel. And they have some interesting use cases and value propositions to health systems. For example, they can act as a great equalizer by helping young surgeons perform subtle movements that would otherwise take them years to perfect. But there's a flip side. Studies like this one from Stanford question the value of robotic tools that yield similar results and raise costs. There's truth to that, but as always, there's nuance and the headlines don't always mean what suggest. Imagine that. On this episode, Shahid Shah and I are joined by Dr. Roger Smith, Chief Technology Officer for Florida Hospital's Nicholson Center for Surgical Advancement. Dr. Smith took a break from profiling surgical robots in his Robot Of The Day series to help us better understand how robotics are impacting surgery. This is one of the more fascinating conversations we've had on the show, and it takes us out of our comfort zone. I hope you enjoy it! Robotic Surgery: Business Cases, Benefits and Myths 2:25 What is robotic surgery? What can it do and what can't it do? 4:40 Why are so many people afraid of this? Are hospitals not explaining this properly or are patients justified in being afraid? 7:00 What does the evidence say about robotic surgery outcomes? What's the advantage that robots bring to surgical procedures? It's all about the rate of improvement. 11:18 A brief history of robotic surgery and the need for updated terminology that segments the variety of robotic devices. 16:16 Assisted procedures vs autonomous robotics. 19:00 What happens to the patient when a robot malfunctions? 22:17 As we look forward to new robots, does the FDA effectively regulate the industry? Are there things the FDA is missing? Surgeons and device makers have different opinions. 27:57 Check out the Software As a Medical Device (SAMD) pre-certification process. The FDA is asking the robotics industry how they would like to be regulated! Submit your answers! Take this opportunity to help them ease your burden. 31:27 What is creating demand on health purchaser side? The 3 big benefits for hospitals 37:20 Cost is a hurdle to adoption. Without robot surgery CPT codes, hospitals get reimbursed the same with or without robots. 41:23 What other benefits do hospitals receive? 45:50 Which surgeries don't need robots? 48:50 Where are the opportunities for innovation in robotic surgery? Who are the big players in robotic surgery?   About Dr. Roger Smith Dr. Roger Smith is the Chief Technology Officer for Florida Hospital's Nicholson Center for Surgical Advancement. He was previously the CTO for U.S. Army Simulation, Training and Instrumentation and a Research Scientist at Texas A&M University.

(https://alwaysalesson.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/06180f9.jpg) Dr. Fredericks is an educator and international business professional with more than 30 years of management experience and academic achievements in the United States, Europe and China.  His professional education career began as an elementary school teacher in the Fort Apache section of the South Bronx, New York. In addition to his teaching duties during regular school hours, he also created and ran all of the after school programs. In addition to his work during the day, he attended the Graduate School of the New School for Social Research where he received a Master’s Degree in Political Science. He was then recruited to help run an urban education graduate program at Indiana University where he also pursued and received a doctorate in Education. Dr. Fredericks then joined the Graduate Faculty of the Bank Street College of Education where he was the Chairman of the History, Principles and Philosophy Department and Professor of Ethics and Educational Philosophy. During his tenure at Bank Street, he also consulted with the government of Venezuela in creating the curriculum for the state run universities. During this phase of his career, Dr. Fredericks enrolled in an MBA program at New York University and received an MBA in Finance, at which time he was recruited by IBM, where he began a long and varied career in business, eventually spanning industries ranging from technology to Hollywood film making to internet start-ups to advertising. Of note, he worked in Paris as the head of Financial Planning and Analysis for IBM Headquarters responsible for Europe, Middle East and Africa. Additionally, after IBM, he helped start and operate Digital Domain which became the largest digital visual effects studio in the world and received Oscar awards, Grammy awards and nominations   for work on movies including Titanic, music videos and television commercials. He then proceeded to lead a variety of companies as the Chief Executive Officer and was an Adjunct Professor of Entertainment Finance at New York University at which point he was recruited to, in a sense, return to his roots in the field of Education by the Sports & Arts in Schools Foundation. Dr. Fredericks has been particularly effective in engaging financial, technical, and marketing organizations to conceptualize and achieve complex business parameters both strategically and tactically. He has delivered speeches and made presentations around the world on a variety of topics including an invitation by the Chinese Ministry of Trade to address business and educational leaders on the potential for the Chinese film making industry to both train and eventually compete on a world class basis. This presentation resulted in Dr. Fredericks being named to the Board of the Center for Creative Media at the City University of Hong Kong. He also, during his tenure as CEO at TNS Media Intelligence, authored a book titled, StraDegy, Advertising in the Digital Age which was extremely well received as it argued that unless industries engaged in, and adapted to, emerging digital technologies, they would find themselves falling further and further behind their new competitors who wholly embraced the digital age. The Sports & Arts in Schools Foundation (SASF) has, under Dr. Fredericks’ direction as Executive Director, become the largest provider of after school activities spanning sports, arts and academics in the United States. It provides these activities in the schools, Kindergarten through High School, to over 25,000 students annually. Dr. Fredericks was asked to join SASF in order to professionalize and grow the organization. He very successfully achieved this and it currently employs over 4000 paid staff annually and has revenue of over $40M. In addition to his duties at SASF, he also serves on the Board of Advisors of the School of Education at Indiana University and has consulted with educators and...

Through historiographical reassessment of the life of Frances Yates, Marjorie G. Jones seeks to expound an adventurous side to Frances Yates’ world view as an autodidact and an outsider to traditional academia. In contrast to views of Yates’ non-existent spiritual life, Jones builds an analogy with the daring spiritual adventures that Yates studied, Giordano Bruno in particular, and the life she lived—‘rising beyond dogma to a higher truth’, as Jones explains. Interested especially in women’s spiritual journeys, Marjorie G. Jones is the author of the first biography of British historian Frances Yates, Frances Yates and the Hermetic Tradition (Ibis Press, 2008, since translated into Japanese and Italian) and a recently published biography of Philadelphia Quaker Mary Vaux Walcott, The Life and Times of Mary Vaux Walcott (Schiffer Press, 2016), which has been nominated for the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts’ Mary Lynn Kotz award. A resident of Philadelphia, currently she teaches history for Villanova University’s college program at Graterford Prison in Pennsylvania. Before moving to Philadelphia, she taught history for twenty years at Mercy College, Dobbs Ferry, NY and for its college program at Sing Sing prison. A graduate of Wheaton College, Massachusetts, she is also a graduate of the Rutgers Law School and the Graduate Faculty of the New School in NYC, where she focused on Historical Studies. The conference Frances Yates: The Art of Memory was held on April 30, 2016 at the Rose Theatre, Kingston. The session was chaired by Francesca Bugliani. Recorded by Anna Rajala and Timo Uotinen.

Memory and psychotherapy: An interview with Elizabeth Loftus

This episode is primarily relevant to professionals. In this episode, R. Trent Codd, III, Ed.S., interviews Elizabeth Loftus, PhD about her research.  Some of the items they discuss include: An overview of her research program  The misinformation effect  The relationship between one’s confidence in a memory and it’s accuracy  How false memories are constructed  Implications of her work for psychotherapy  ELIZABETH LOFTUS, PhD BIOGRAPHY Dr. Loftus attended UCLA and originally majored in Mathematics. Dr. Loftus was planning on being a math teacher when she discovered psychology while attending UCLA. In 1966, she received her Bachelor of the Arts in Math and Psychology from UCLA. After graduating from UCLA Dr. Loftus enrolled at Stanford in the Master's program. While attending Stanford, Dr. Loftus became interested in long term memory. There is a story that Dr. Loftus mentions in, The Myth of Repressed Memory, having to do with her mother's death. Some 20 years after her mother drowned in a swimming pool her family was having a get together at her Uncle's house and a relative mentioned to Dr. Loftus something about her having been the one to find her mother in the swimming pool. After that moment Dr. Loftus began remembering things about finding her mother in the pool, several memories flooded back to her that she did not know that she had in her memory. A few days after being told that she had been the one to find her mother, her brother called and told her that the relative had gotten the information wrong and that her uncle, not her, had been the one to find their mother in the swimming pool. This event in Dr. Loftus' life gives more fuel to the battle she is fighting about memory and how easy it is to create false memories. Until that day, Dr. Loftus had no memories of finding her mother in the pool, but as soon as she was told that it had been her, all kinds of memories of the event were "recovered."  In 1967, Dr. Loftus received her M.A. in psychology and then in 1968 she married her now ex-husband, George Loftus. Dr. Loftus received her Ph.D. (also from Stanford) 1970 (Born, 1997). From 1970 to 1973 Dr. Loftus was an Assistant Professor and Graduate Faculty at New School University. From 1973 to 2002, Dr. Loftus has been employed with the University of Washington holding such titles as Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor. Dr. Loftus was also an Adjunct Professor of Law for the University of Washington between 1984 and 2002. Between 2002 and the present Dr. Loftus has been an Affiliate Professor at the University of Washington for the Psychology department as well as the School of Law. Dr. Loftus received grants from the National Institute of Mental Health between 1971 and 1974 for her reseearch and in 1973 Dr. Loftus published her first book, Human Memory. For Dr. Loftus 1974 was a busy year, she worked for the Department of Transportation (until 1976) was a member of the editorial boards for the Journal of Experimental Psychology, and she published an article on memeory which thrust her into the courtroom as an expert witness. For one year (1975-1976) Dr. Loftus was a fellow of the American Council on Education and in 1976 Cognitive Processes was published. Dr. Loftus has been a member of the National Science Foundation and a fellow of the Center for Advanced Study in Behavioral Science (Loftus, 2008). Eyewitness Testimony was published in 1979 and also that year Dr. Loftus became Professor of Psychology at the University of Washington. Also during 1979, Dr. Loftus began her research on repressed memories and eyewitness account due to the alarmingly high rates of childhood abuse and trauma. In 1980, Dr. Loftus published Law and Human Behavior and in 1981 Dr. Loftus found surprising information into how we remember and also why we forget. In 1983, Dr. Loftus was honored by being invited to present her work on memory to the Royal Society in London. Dr. Loftus and her husband Geoffrey Loftus were divorced in 1991. The Myth of Repressed Memory was published in 1994 with Remembering Dangerously right behind it in 1995. Dr. Loftus received the Distinguished Contribution Award from the American Academy of Forensic Psychology also in 1995 (Loftus, 2008). Dr. Loftus has been awarded six different honorary doctorates beginning in 1984 and receiving the last in 2006. She received her first honorary doctorate in 1982 from Miami University in Ohio. The second was received from Leiden University in the Netherland in 1990. Her third honorary doctorate, in 1994, came from John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York and was an honorary doctorate of laws. In 1998, she received her fourth honorary doctorate from the University of Portsmouth in England. The fourth and the fifth honorary doctorate were in 2005 and 2008, respectively and were from the University of Haifa in Israel and the University of Oslo, respectively. Dr. Loftus has been of service to many different societies and has also served as President of many of these organizations. In 1984, she served as President of the Western Psychological Association (she also served as President for this organization in 2004-2005). She served as President of the American Psychology-Law Society in 1985 and as President of Division 3 (Experimental) of the American Psychological Association in 1988. From 1998 to 1999, Dr. Loftus served as President for the Association of Psychological Science (APS). Dr. Loftus has received many awards due to her work, in fact she has received so many that I am only able to mention a few of them here. In 1996, she received the American Association of Applied and Preventative Psychology (AAAPP) Award for Distinguished Contributions to Basic and Applied Scientific Psychology (Loftus, 2008). She received the James McKeen Cattell Fellow from APS in 1997 for "a career of significant intelletual contributions to the science of psychology in the area of applied psychological research." In 2001, Dr. Loftus received the William James Fellow from APS for "ingeniously and rigorously designed research studies...that yielded clear objective evidence on difficults and controversial questions." The National Academy of Sciences bestowed the inaugral Henry & Bryna David Lectureship award in 2002. This is an award for the "application of the best social and behavioral sciences research to public policy issues." In 2004, Dr. Loftus was elected to the National Academy of Sciences, then in 2005 she was elected to the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Also in 2005, Dr. Loftus won the Grawemeyer Prize in Psychology with a gift of $200,000. The prize was to honor ideas of "great significance and impact." Dr. Loftus was elected tothe American Philosophical Society in 2006. Most recently Dr. Loftus was named the 58th of the 100 Most Eminent Psychologists of the 20th century and was also the top ranked woman.
